After talking about peanut butter on toast yesterday i decided to have it for beakfast today :) And its true - the peanut butter melts! haha but i think i need to put the settings down on my toaster - the toast was abit too dry.

Saw this link on Shirley's blog - ITS AMAZING I LOVED IT !! WATCH IT !! & i've added the site to my links on the right

9 of us chicky babes got together this afternoon for High Tea @ The Victoria Room. We were lucky to get a secluded corner away from the hustle bustle & chit chatter from the rest of the people in the room, where we could actually hear our conversations, and had our own privacy!!

The food was not as nice as the Tea Room @ QVB, and the service wasnt that great (we had a dipsy waitress take half our teas away when we werent even done yet). There wasnt much variety, but our waiter was cute, we all got along well & we enjoyed our lazy Sunday afternoon sipping tea :)

I had specified vegetarian platter for myself and was impressed when they came out with it for me first before serving anything else! Also we were one girl short but they didnt charge us for this (on the booking form, any cancellations made within 24 hrs would be charged)

Alicia & Cheeky headed home after so the rest of us went to the Gazebo bar for drinks & chatter. Again, we were lucky enough to score a nice corner, with lots of room, on a retro cool red couch!

Oh, i saw this guy washing his hair in the fountain. & another guy skipping rope next to the fountain, and sipping his 'mother' energy drink

haha :D

Had an AWESOME afternoon with you gals, and looking forward to our girls night out in April !!!!

We went bike riding with Sam & Julie this morning, around Homebush Bay BiCentennial parklands. Rode for about an hour and a half (half that time was spent stopping to take photo's haha) & it started raining!! Took our time getting back to the car, got slightly wet, & headed off to Rhodes for Lunch.

We were happily eating & snapping away at Tomodachi (japanese sushi train/restaurant) then one of the workers came up to me and told me no photo's allowed. What the hell????! Anyways, no food review for them..!! The food wasnt that nice anyway..

Spent the rest of the day hanging out with Annie, (she eats alot more, but real real slowly. It took her like 2.5 hours to finish a happy meal..!!)

Got ready for Dinner with friends @ Shangri-La hotel. Jeremy organised this (thanks again jeremy!) he had 2-for-1 vouchers so it cost $45 per person for a yummy SEADFOOD buffet!!

Went to dinner with Sam & Julie tonight, @ Dolcissimo @ Haberfield (apparently italian restaurants here are more authentic then Leidchardt)

We had two pizza's, a pasta, & tiramisu & strawberries and cream for desert it was so yummy (i am totally working out at the gym tomorrow!!)

Afterwards we went to a overhead bridge on parramatta road to attempt taking light trail photo's - this was my favourite one because it had the most even-ness of white and red on each side

Leona suggested to me to try doing a bokeh shot tonight - how does it looK?

Me, Rick & Pete had dinner at the Bavarian Bier Cafe in Parramatta tonight, this place is really good value for money, and really filling & yummy too. All the waitresses have their shirts unbuttoned all the way down, and they serve different types of beers

Before dinner we were at Auburn Megacentre checking out rock climbing gear at Anaconda. its so expensive !! it'll be atleast $300 for a harness and shoes.... so we're gonna look around on the net instead. Just thinking.. is it worth the investment???

Also, after work i quickly wrote up 5 postcards for 5 new postcrossing buddies, love it !! I love love love receiving and sending things in the mail.

Got this from one of them :

A Postcard: 10 cents
The Stamp: 27 cents
Quick walk to the post office: 2 min

Those few moments of excitement when you open your mailbox: Priceless!
